A History Of Italian Colonialism 1900-1934 by Giuseppe Finaldi, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

This book, part two of Giuseppe Finaldi's sweeping account of Italian colonialism studies its history from the turn of the 20th century to the early 1930s. The book engages with a period of huge social, political and cultural change resulting in a new dynamism on the African and expansionist front. The period saw an economic leap forward, an extension of Italians' political engagement - through new forces such as popular socialism, social Catholicism and the 'new' nationalism - as well as a huge surge in the number of people leaving Italy for new lives in the Americas while expansionism made its mark in Libya, the horn of Africa and elsewhere. | A History Of Italian Colonialism 1900-1934 by Giuseppe Finaldi, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
